Sailors from around the Kingdom set sail to the Britain bay to take part in the Queen's Regatta. Registration was handled by EM Dudley at the Britain docks. A line of ships were set in place for everyone to line up on. Once everyone was in place they had to wait awhile before 8:00 rolled around. The SHE guild had no trouble passing the time. Spit balls flew from the vessel onto other in attendance.

Kijustsu Anei Village and Kijustsu Anei Keys ships fired back. Casting fire fields and useing firework wands to strike the SHE Ship. Other vessels such as Nanocs summoned very large Demons. The other ships thought twice before sending any fire over that way. Unfortunately we could not see far enough down the line to see how others passed the time.

EM Dudley appeared before each ship. Setting down a small box. He announced once they explode the race would begin. However the one sailing the SHE vessel got a little trigger happy but, don't worry they moved back into place....*cough* *cough*

The boxes exploded in a massive flame and everyone set off. Some minor boat bumping did occur, but that was to be expected. Everyone raced for the first way point location.

A few ships were reported to have sank and on another vessel the captain was thrown overboard. Each way point had a ship waiting surrounded by sea monsters. On board each ship was a sailor yelling the next set of coordinates to head to.

Towards the end of the race the crews representing Kijustsu Anei Village and Guardians Gate passed each other and waved. With Niva the Savage and Lord Gareth in the lead they knew they had to pick up the pace. At the last way point they let the ship sail by itself. They quickly went into hiding and sailed through the sea monsters. Hearing the sailor yell the final set of coordinates they quickly took control of the ship again and set sail.

The SKS Shipping Ship from Kijustsu Anei Village pulled in first. Queen Dawn greeted the winners. They were asked to dock next to the Queens ship. Lord Balandar (not Balander) came aboard Queen Dawns Vessel to give her some disturbing news.

Guardians Gate sailed in moments later taking second place. They were also informed of the disturbing news. The Lemon Fresh ship from Kijustsu Anei Keys, captained by Mr Clean and his crew, Tiger Lily and Mirt came in Third place. Congratulations to everyone who participated.
